DEPRIVED Appetite in Animals.

It is universal result of indigestion
and malnutrition in animals that the
appetite becomes excessive or depraved
and either too much food is eaten or
coarse stuff which is not food is craved.
Animals thus disordered are always
unthrifty, because they do not digest
their food and get the full benefit from
it. This remedy is very simple. Give
a. brisk purgative to clear out the sys-
tenn of all undigested matter and re-
lieye the liver and follow it with one
dram each of podophyllin and pounded
Peruvian bark mixed with sufficient
molasses to smear it on the back teeth
and the tongue. Give three doses OF
the above in week, with bran mash
every day, and an ounce Of salt in it.
Regular supply of salt is an effective
preventive of this trouble.-N Y.

Cultivated and How Fed.
&. Field peas are specially well adapted
for feeding sheep, for wool is a nitro
genous product, and the pea is well
adapted to its growth. Corn, as a
single food, is too poor in nitrogen to
produce the best growth of wool. 1t is
for this reason that cloverhay is recon.
mended to be fed with corn. Glover
and peas both belong to the class of
leguminous plants, butthe pea is richer
in nitrogen. Peas and corn balance
each other-thc pea being rich in that
in which corn is deficient.
When the crop is cut while green.
and when the peas are just beginning
to form in the pod, it is cured with as
much care rs nice clover, and is
fed the same as hay. 1t is very
nutritious, if we'll cured, as it con-
tains the nutrimcnt of stalk and grain.
The nutrimcnt which would have
gone into the grain to perfect it, had it
ripenel, is left in the stalk. 1t is rich
in albuminoids, or legumen: is excel
lent for growing the frame and muscu-
lar system of lambs and young sheep,
and is also most appropriate food for
breeding ewes. When the crop is al
lowed to ripcn so far as to give good
berry to the grain, it is cured and
thrcshed, and the grain and straw fed
separately. 1t is cut while the straw is
yet green, and, when nicely cured. has
feeding value about equal to common
hay, for sheep. Peas make most cx-
cellent winter food for breeding, store
or fattening sheep. For lambs, the
first winter, they can hardly be OK
celled. In a cool climate, it is we'll to
add some corn, this having more starch
and OIL
AS to the time for planting peas, the
best crop is generally produced by
early planting. The rule for oats is
good for peas. 1t is well known that
the oat crop is heavier when early
planted, and many regard the combin-
ed crop of oats and peas as most
profitable for the purpose mentioned
by our correspondent. The oats assist
in holding up the pea-yines. and ron
der the crop more easily harvested 1t
can usually be cut with a reaper. al
lowed to be cured in the gayel, and be
hauled as hay. The oat crop is also an
excellent food for sheep. This crop
must be cut when the berry of the pea
is in the dough state, without regard
to the oats. Some advise tWo-thirds
oats and one-third peas in seeding, but
we have found the best p oportion to
be the opposite-two-thirds peas and
one-third oats. When put in with a
drill, use two bushels of field peas and
one bushel of oats to the acre for seed,
and always let the seed be good.
Never SOW light oats. This combined
crop may be cut green, and fed as hay,
if desired. 1t is often planted as
soiling crop, and produces large
amount of green food. When cured it
makes equally good winter food; but if
allowed to ripen, as mentioned, pro-
duces good yield of mixed grain
often forty to fifty bushels to the acre.
